The Good & The Bad

The movement McKenzie gave to this flat land.

It's very dificult to be able to play.

Signature Hole

18th / Par 4 / 350 yards:
Inspired in "Old Course Saint Andrews" 18th. Both have almost the same lenght, both are almost straight, both have no bunkers... It's all about the green! During the open some PRO put their ball in the fringe with a 3 wood, even though they couldn't get a birdie.
